There were also cavalry captain Wu Shangzhi, scout captains Tang Yanhai and Wang Tiezhu.
These are the first-class officers under the command of Captain Zhao Muyun.
After the Battle of Weizhou, Tian Qing, Wu Shangzhi, Wang Tiezhu and others were promoted to the rank of captain and reported to the Hedong Jiedushi and the imperial court's Ministry of War respectively.
It is said that Zhao Muyun was promoted too quickly, from a small soldier to a captain in just half a year.
The same was true for his brothers. In just half a year, they rose from small soldiers to captains of a prefecture and held important positions.
"I know the identities of these two people. They are the sons of the Duke of Lu and the Duke of E in the current dynasty. They are very precious!" Wang Tiezhu pouted and was very disdainful of these two dukes' sons.
"So they are descendants of nobles. No wonder Tong Gu can't do anything about them. Pei Lun must be in trouble too." Zhao Muyun suddenly realized when he heard it.
"Brother Zhao, if only that were all! My people heard that the two dukes heard that the emperor wanted to commend you for your meritorious service, so they joined forces with other dukes to seek justice from His Majesty."

"This is indeed surprising, but after hearing what you said, it seems nothing!" Wang Tiezhu scratched his head.
He didn't expect that the matter he thought was very important and urgent was nothing at all in front of Zhao Muyun.
"The third thing is about the Guannei Road!"
Wang Tiezhu swallowed hard, "Lord Tian and Lord Pei were defeated. I requested the imperial court to send a General Li Chenghua to lead an army of 20,000 to quell the rebellion."
"But who knew that Li Jingang had concealed his true intentions, leaving behind 50,000 men to confuse Li Chenghua and the two Lords, while he led the main force into Xijing!"
"The imperial court was furious upon hearing this. Minister of War Yang Dingguo volunteered to lead three battalions of elite troops from the capital to fight Li Jingang's army west of the capital."
